Description: Arginine Vasopressin (AVP) is a 9 amino acid peptide that is synthesized in the hypothalamus supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei. The peptide is structurally related to oxytocin differing only by 2 amino acids. It is stored in the posterior pituitary and when it is released, it has a powerful antidiuretic action on the kidney's collecting tubule, causing an increase in permeability to water and urea. VSP has shown to also act as a neurotransmitter. Research areas include: cardio vascular disease, kidney injury, diabetes inspididus, hypernatremia, and pollyuria.
The Vasopressin ELISA (AVP/ADH) 5 Plate kit is a competitive immunoassay for the quantitative determination of Vasopressin in plasma, serum, and conditioned cell media. New antibody provides increased sensitivity Now compatible with multiple samples types: tissue culture media, serum, plasma
